Color Me {Perfectly Patterned}

We lost a legend a couple weeks ago and this is my tribute to her. Lilly Pulitzer was not only the purveyor of pattern on the runway but was a huge influence in special events as well. She inspired bold color choices, pattern play, and brought life to the party.  In her honor today, I hope to brighten your day and inspire a fun filled gathering for all. The keys to throwing a Lilly party are simple. Lots of color, coordinating pattern, and smiles are all a must. Try some bold coastal preppy details to make it over the top!

Have a great Monday!

A Little Friday Lovin' {Stripes}

So, I'm a little bit obsessed with horizontal stripes right now. Apparently, they are supposed to make you look wider, but frankly "I just don't give a damn." (Who can name that movie?!) I'm kind of obsessed with how classic they are. Stripes are a great pattern to add to any soiree. They bring in a visual interest to the room while still keeping your event classic.  I mean, look at the table in the top right hand corner. It is way more visually appealing than if the striped table cloth were replaced with a solid white one.  I want to know, do you have the same infatuation with stripes as I do? Or are they a little too much for you?

Remember...Life's a Party, Plan Accordingly! Have a great weekend! xo
